Lindelof’s No.2 shirt has been vacant since Rafael joined Lyon two years ago, while Lukaku has inherited the No.9 from Zlatan Ibrahimovic, who is a free agent while he recovers from his cruciate ligament injury.

‘I always asked my mother what number, and I used to play with the 10 because my mother’s birthday is on the 10th of October, so it’s the 10th month of the year. That’s why I played with No. 10,’ Lukaku said in an interview with ESPN.
